Request for help

I was done at the south shore of the Kenai River this past weekend out in the marsh area counting birds and documenting the nesting colony of Arctic terns and Gulls. I have a serious request. The chicks of Arctic terns are right near the fence put up by the City and the terns are going crazy if someone approaches them. I would request people that use this area if they see anyone near the fence they ask them to move back. The chicks are running off the nest and that is a major problem for them. One got under the fence and was out exposed on the bare ground.

Second, there were a number of dogs out running in the marsh chasing and killing gull chicks. There was no owner near and when I chased them they ran toward the PU fishery camp. If you see dogs running free please ask the owners to put them on a long rope if they are not going to be with them on the beach. I am not concerned about walking along the beach free but they should not be out in the marsh.

This is a serious issue. There are a number of migratory birds that nest out there and if this continues it could threaten the whole fishery. I would hope people will self police and let others know how important it is to keep the animals and people out of the marsh area during this critical time.
